Bean Burritos
Ingredients
For the burritos
- 15 ounces black beans (1 can)
- 1 cup corn
- ⅔ cup cherry tomatoes sliced
- ½ cup red onion diced
- 1 cup green bell peppers diced
- ¼ cup cilantro fresh chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- Pinch salt
- Pinch black pepper
- 1.5 cups cooked brown rice
- 2-3 large flour tortillas
For the sauce
- 1 cup Vegan mayo
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1-2 tablespoons water or lime juice to thin it out if needed
Instructions
-
In a medium bowl combine the black beans, corn, tomatoes, onion, peppers, cilantro, lime juice, salt and pepper and toss. Then mix in the cooked rice.
-
To make the sauce, combine all of the sauce ingredients into a medium size mixing bowl and whisk well until a semi-thick, orange color sauce forms. Taste and add more salt and pepper if needed. You can also add a little bit of water or lime juice to thin the sauce out if desired.
-
To assemble the burritos, place the tortillas in a damp paper towel and warm them in the microwave for 15-20 seconds. Then place a flour tortilla onto a flat surface and spread some of the sauce all over the tortilla, top it with some of the burrito bean and rice filling down the center of the tortilla, about ⅔ cup. Then add a drizzle of the sauce over the filling.
-
Fold the sides of the tortilla inward so they cover the filling then roll the end closest to you towards the other end, folding and rolling as you go. Continue until you have rolled up the burrito then place it seam side down. Keep assembling the rest of the burritos.
-
Heat a cast iron pan to medium heat on the stovetop and spray it with some olive oil spray to prevent sticking. Place 1-2 of the assembled burritos into the pan, seam-side down and cook until browned, about 1-2 minutes. Flip and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes.
-
Remove the burritos from the pan and place onto a plate. Brown the remaining burritos, if needed. Then slice each one in half and serve with the remaining sauce.
